im fairly new here so im having difficulty understanding
what all the criticism is over in peoples posts lately. What is the point of all the bagging other people out? Were all screwed up here, all having a rough time, thats why were here, to communicate with people that have been there & can relate to what were going through from experience. After all this illness doesnt care about your status or whatever. It affects all of us here, where in the same boat. So why throw people overboard when there all gripping to the side in desperation and sadness. Whos to judge who deserves to be helped or saved & who doesnt? So what is the point of kicking people when there down? Does that make them feel better by putting others lower then themselves, belittling. Thats like high school stuff. Dont we already feel bad enough? Didnt there mothers teach them if they cant say anything nice then dont say anything at all?
Yes everybody is entitled to their own opinion, but they can also choose the way they express it as well. People need to remember that they're not the only ones with thoughts & feelings. Words are powerful things which can have deeper meanings. And also as my mother keeps telling me, people dont always mean things to come out the way they do. Getting offended & looking for revenge wont help anything but cause further conflict. Some poeple in the world are nice, others are just jerks, no matter where you are you'll find that. On this site is no different. Choose who you wana respond to, the ones that are being cruel obviously arent worth your time so just disregard them i think. Dont degrade yourself by sinking to there level. People we're all her for the same things, so please try & be supportive to one & other.
This is the only sanctuary i have, the only place i can express myself without the usual, fear, hatred, isolataion, put downs etc that comes with letting anyone know what im going through here. There are enough negativities in my life, i dont need more here, im sure many others dont either.
I apologise if i said too much here, these are just my thoughts in response to some of what ive been reading. Im sure im not alone with this. Its as simple as putting your brain into gear before your mouth. I for one barely have the energy to get myself through each day, let alone put what little energy i have into making others feel bad. thankyou for your time people.
